Can VR help to Drive Deep Learning?

Posted by Kevin M | 01 Sep, 2017

First of all, it is very important that we understand what Virtual Reality and Deep Learning are. For most people, it is already subjective that virtual reality means wearing a certain techy item to immerse in a virtual experience that is completely different and detached from our own real world. It is also easily understood that deep learning means having a deeper foundation on the basis of studying compared to most practice nowadays.

VR for Deep Learning?

But how do we co-relate Virtual Reality and Deep Learning?

Deep Learning has opened so many doors to a lot of people in exploring while studying. It has ushered in a new way of thinking. Analyzing to the levels and contexts that are unfamiliar and beyond the paradigms of basic formulas. As it is the main goal of learning to acquire and retain information to be able to apply it in real life, Deep Learning is when someone uses higher-order cognitive skills to try and achieve a certain outcome.

As we enter into the new age of technology, we are becoming more and more intelligent. Simply knowing the basics of mathematics (+, -, x , /) is no longer enough. Formulas are created and now needed to help make things easier to calculate. Understanding complex problems and solving each mysteries has become the standard of how well a person will be able to survive life itself. Gone were the days were simplicity is the answer to everything.

Artificial Intelligence

Virtual Reality makes Deep Learning easier to achieve as it is by itself a fruit of it. Being able to understand to the level of artificial intelligence (AI) is now achievable with the help of VR technology. It is now much easier to create a world where learning can just be a swipe away. Deep Learning is empowering the world of Artificial Intelligence and it is fueling the progress we now see emerging.

Robotics, Machine Learning and Self-Driving Cars are Deep Learning types of Artificial Intelligence. Virtual Reality and Deep Learning goes hand in hand and co-exists with each other. Without the science of Deep Learning, VRs wouldn’t have been possible. With Virtual Reality, Deep Learning can be achieved through apps and programs that can help create an environment to stimulate and enhance each individual’s cognitive skills.

With Deep Learning, the possibilities are limitless! Just like Virtual Reality where there are no boundaries!

If you are not a very techy person, it can be a challenge grasp the idea of Virtual Reality and Deep Learning. So let us imagine different scenarios where we will create a totally different world where we can transform algorithms into a concept that we can easily understand – difficult to picture out, right? With the help of Virtual Reality, it is now possible to achieve that through simulations.

Together with this type of AI that is created through a specific person’s programming skills through Deep Learning anyone can enhance their level of learning. This type of VR environment may be used as a tool to enhance another person’s cognitive skills to achieve higher level of Deep Learning. Using sounds, images, text and face recognition technologies are some of the programs created in recent years that are now being integrated into the VR world.

Potential

So if anyone will ask if Virtual Reality can help drive Deep Learning – the answer is a big YES. It is an excellent way for many people to achieve higher level of understanding and thinking. Virtual Reality is the medium we have today to help stimulate and simulate our senses to help us with processing data and achieve the outcome we are seeking. Deep Learning, once achieved will not be the limit into how far human mind can think and process.

No, we may not be able to achieve an AI’s capacity but we can always create AIs to help make a lot of people’s lives easier. We can utilize Deep Learning to help solve a wide array of problems affecting a lot of people. Virtual Reality can help us understand how far Deep Learning could contribute. Today, it is an amazing medium that can enable the ability to practice Deep Learning through simulations in the VR world.
